How will the remap affect my warranty?

Contrary to popular statements no one can say 100% that the remap will be undetectable. The modification to the software shouldn't show up on main dealer diagnostic equipment and therefore unless you tell them that it has been done, they will be none the wiser.

How will the remap affect my fuel consumption?

Depending on what your requirements are and your driving style depends on what your fuel economy will be.

If you go for an out right maximum power output and drive it as so, you can expect to see it decrease as it would without the map. If you get the map to increase torque low down and drive conservatively then it is likely that fuel economy will increase.

How will the remap affect the longevity of my engine?

The remap will obviously increase the power output of your vehicle and depending on how you drive depends on how reliable it is for you. If you drive it harder then naturally you can expect to decrease the life of your engine but likewise if you thrashed it without even having it mapped then you would expect this to be the case anyway. The remap does not in any way stress the engine so the remap itself does not affect the longevity, only your driving style.

Can it be reversed?

The beauty of the remap is that this process is completely reversible without any trace, therefore if within 14 days you want it changed back, we will carry it out free of charge with a full refund. If after 14 days you wish to reverse it then there is a £50 call out charge for the process but no refund will be given unless otherwise agreed prior to 14 elapse.

Is remapping better then chipping?

OBD remapping is the modern technique replacing chipping. It reads and writes on your ECU via the OBD port and does not invalidate warranties. Chipping your car requires opening of the ECU and installing a preprogrammed chip which is a fixed one map suits all. They do not take into account other modifications and can not be mapped to suit particular requirements. This is not a resistor that fools your ECU, it is the genuine article.

What if I want to sell my car?

If you wish to sell the car with the map on then no problem, if you wish to have it reversed back to standard after a period of time then again no problem, we charge £50 to reverse the map back to standard.

What about my insurance?

This is up to you. We have to advise that you inform your insurance companies that the remap has been carried out but as there is no way for them to read this map, it is up to you what you do. It is your responsibility.

What warranty do you give?

As we change nothing on your car other than a software map, there is nothing for us to give a warranty on. If for some obscure reason you suffer a problem, we will do our utmost to help you including returning your car to standard for any testing.

Will I lose the remap if I disconnect the battery?

The remap is a software change hard written to the ecu. This means that if you disconnect your battery you will not lose the remap itself.
